Love's Obsession
Love is beautiful but also has woes,
it ravishes me so I surrender;
and sends my heart and soul into wild throes,
as love kisses my red lips so tender.
Love's touch on my rosy cheek is sublime,
this passion and love has set me aflame;
and I must be in love's arms all the time,
oh love- I am yours forever to claim.
But, when did this love turn to obsession,
and our wild need for each other like chains;
our days apart leading to depression,
and hearts not love filled but bleeding red stains.
Love must be beautiful but also tamed;
until that perfect moment of untamed.
